Hi All,

I'm trying to write a formula that is going to calculate time to finish parts in hours, for example i have 35000 parts making 550 per hour how long is going to take me to finish it in hours and minutes. I tried changing the numeric to time but its working only in 24h time it doesnt give me the exact time in hours and minutes

Can you AutoAverage in Excel?
There is a drop-down next to the AutoSum symbol. Open the drop-down to choose AVERAGE, COUNT, MAX, or MIN

What are those Time Formats? My dropdown has only 4.
OMG, if you switch to English (United States) there's more formats. What-The-Hell...

And now I see that if I select Custom with that set to
'[h]:mm:ss'
Is THAT the requirement?

Took ME some time to understand, too:
hh:mm shows only the remaining hours and minutes, (removing the days portion of the time)
dd hh:mm shows days, hours and minutes.
and [h]:mm shows the whole hours and minutes. I had NEVER come across the [h] concept before.
